I am my own masterpiece
flawed and broken
but unique and irreplaceable.

i wondered if you felt the same.
i always wanted to know.
i didn't even know if, i, myself felt it; what i thought i felt.
it was a mystery.
just question marks swooshing around like tired flags right around me.

Perhaps the reason there is so much suffering in this world is because
We aren't made for this world
I want you and I don't.

No matter how I wrack my brain,
I do not understand you.

I control you and I don't.

I can never understand why,
But I will always be the most curious.

I get you and I don't.

It's all around you at night,
It's in your head all the time,
Yet you look away from it,
You say it's not there,
You pretend that it never existed,
Yet,
It's still there,
And it will follow you to the end,
So just accept it,
Accept who you are,
What you've done,
And what you stand for,
Only then,
Will the truth become strength.

everyday i dive.
i've gotten so good at it, i don't even need the practice.
not to brag or anything but i don't even need to warm-up.
i get my legs ready to kick, and my arms ready to open themselves to the vastness of the cold, rough water.
nothing goes through my head as i do it, and i submerge myself just enough not to go too far...

And as the bell rings, I pick up my things, and prepare for the next trip out to sea.

I’m not certain we were soul mates, not strangers either. Something between the soft whisper of lovers and the loud scream of family. We were just two magnetic souls clinging to each others lies and smiles.

love is patient
love is kind
but love can really
mess up your mind.
